Healthy ophthalmic surgeons (4 trainee surgeons and 4 consultants) and 4 OT assistants without any history of systemic illness were studied while performing uncomplicated and uneventful cataract surgery. Resting state and post-operative (immediately after surgery) systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), pulse rate (PR), and oxygen saturation (SPO2) were measured by a Comen C80 multi-parameter monitor. Blood cortisol levels were measured by chemiluminescent assay (CLIA) and urine catecholamines levels (adrenaline, nor-adrenaline and dopamine) were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). For assessment of stress among one group, paired t-test is used and for comparison of stress levels between trainee surgeons and consultants unpaired t-test is used.Results: Consultantw though the level of stress is different among surgeons.Keywords: urine catecholamines, blood cortisol |
